Literally just sold my ‘03 Track edition 350Z. 😭😭😭 Guy picks it up tomorrow. Sad day
Did you do it cuz of money issues?
@@GPStudios8228yeah, COVID and inflation hit us hard, and we had a second kid right as COVID started. With no time to drive it, can’t put kids in it, and piling up bills, it was time to move on. Only had 78k miles too.😢
@@jon82987 that sucks bro, maybe you can get a 4d sedan car that is a good one to mod
Like an Integra, civic, just something that you’d like but also your family can too
My Condolences 😢
That 350z you showed for $6,995 is a salvaged title. So yeah I’d expect it to be a “steal” considering you’re getting a pile of junk
Lol. That's funny.
Salvage could be the smallest dumbest reason you just got to do your research
@@bryanr6093 true, but still, good luck getting it insured properly
Its one of the cheapest cars for their speed top 4 actually, and its a drift car too not race hahah
In the 90s the ultimate street sleeper on a budget was undoubtedly the Toyota Celica, preferably the 1993 model with the larger alloys, flip up headlights and a rorty 2.0litre engine. What I could never understand was that people went for the Subarus Imprezzas and Mitsubishi Evos... but in the WRC Toyota (with driver Carlos Santz) was winning back-back world championships. And the cars were not only fast, great handling, and reliable, but also comfortable and practical.
In the 00's my contender is a 3.5l Mercedes-Benz CLK A209 convertible. Looks, reliability, speed when you want it, refinement when you don't, and good low mileage ones are still less than £5000/$6000US.
Don't go for the tyre chewing gas guzzling 5, 5.5 and 6.3 litre AMGs, the 3.5 AMG spec Sport gives you 270 bhp, with almost max torque from 1600rpm(!), 30+ mpg, decent boot space, decent rear seats AND a 0-60 time in a not to sloppy 6.2secs. The 7 speed gearboxes should be silky smooth, and with a paddle shift option, give you back full control. I honestly never thought a "budget" car could be as cool, although when they were new, in today's money, they were £/$68,000, but for less than a tenth of that, you can still feel the genuine German quality.
That pic of the honorable mention of the Integra wasn't the Integra. It was the prelude.
Same videos with minor tweaks. But I'll still watch tho. That Mk 6 GTI is my dream❤❤
Glad the 2v GT made it. Super cheap, sounds amazing, and might be the cleanest looking mustang body style wise.
Such a underated channel
YES! YES! YES! The Catfish is #1 I was saying y'all better have it on this list and BAM NUMBER ONE BABY! Can you tell I'm a Camaro fan? I'm a fan of all Gens. Especially gen 3 and 4. This is probably the best video you all have ever made!
Hold your horses there cowboy, lol.
3rd gen = win
4th gen... Pull the heads on one and get back to me.
I'm very interested in how that job goes.
too bad that car is getting axed next year
I have been looking for a 1998 to 2002 Camaro Z28 for almost two years and there is never one in Puerto Rico or they are over 10k. This list of cars was very good, apparently there are already cheaper cars in the USA. The Corvette for 10k that you showed, I would like one at that price.
Can you guys talk about the bmw z4 please (all the generations if posible and a best overall of all of them)
What website should I use to look for these cars
Pretty wild the auto cross video was in my hometown in the mustang
The integra al ready came back the car you meant is the Prelude
finally after a million years of waiting..
Anyone else think the 4th gen camaro SS is under rated?? It's as fast as a new Toyota supra out of the box with the m6 and takes to mods very well...I got a 55000 mile one sitting in the garage...this year she turns 25..and she was the last of the t tops such a nice option
4th gen is the one being mentioned here. It's the one considered the "catfish camaro". You're probably talking about the 330hp LT4 small block. I'd rather have the 96' C4 Corvette with the same engine. Honestly, I can't get over the engine bay in that car. I can't imagine what its like to pull the spark plugs, the heads, exhaust, etc.
Since you've owned one for so long, maybe you can tell me, is the maintenance on that car as much of a PITA as it looks? Because it looks worse than working on a Chevy Express van.
I'm really interested in your take on the subject.
@@christopherlowery855 no just talking about a ls1 m6 camaro SS...I've owned it for 14 years and the only thing I've done to this car is a water pump...not a do it yourself job and a battery and 3 sets of tires this car sits for super long periods of time then taken out and it don't miss a beat...a lt4 car would be a good choice since they are in all manual 96 corvettes...but I don't like the c4 myself so even if it was a lt5 car I still wouldn't be interested
My 2012 v6 challenger blew the transmission under 85k miles
Had to stop 2 minutes in this vid.... every challenger rt or srt I've seen at ever on a sales lot or showroom has been inflated at least 10k smh
Had to stop 30 seconds in… who is finding a cheap, good condition 350z in this day and age😂
I think I’ll just pick up the honorable mention. That way I get a car and a new hobby!
Can you do the Infiniti m37 please
The M Roadster is awesome for a grocery getter. The C5 is great. The Mustang too. Timeless designs
I like how all of these in my Eastern European country cost over 10k$ not rusted
What happened to the Genesis coupe? This is unfair everywhere it’s easily forgotten 😢 but anyone that’s tried it loves it
Genesis coupe is good seeing it everywhere now though
What's the maintenance like on this car? I'm not convinced on its durability. Far superior to a BMW on maintenance though, lol. Do any of you own one? Have it beyond 120k mi? I'm interested in how the engine fairs over time.
@christopherlowery855 Very late to say this but it has a fairly big timing chain failure problem! Beware :)
great
That 350 z has a salvage title.
what about an e46 m3? e92 330i? these are better than all of the above
4th gen camaros are cool until u have to work on em.. engine is in such a fucked spot and makes it hard to get to the back half of it.. but you’ll get great numbers.. also i say the neon srt4 should go in this list bc yes
Ok.. Market prices here in Germany are twice as much. No Brz or Gt 86 under 20k
Where in the world are you getting a c5 for 10k with 65k miles on it ill take 2...
I got mine for 15k with 46k miles and that’s not that rare of a deal. Well at least when I bought it in 2020
@Mustlehard 4years ago.... please check the current market before commenting..
got a clean title one with 81k miles for 10k in february of this year lol. just takes time and gotta know where to look.
super super best cars
The first one should have read: Nissan Z350/370, Infiniti G35/37
50k un 350z en arg… el challenguer ni me gasto en ver 😅
Sucker for the c5
Bro where they selling good z style Nissans for under 10k?!??
yea
Where the 2IS350
No AWD options for the Winter 😭
We go out in a blaze of glory🗿 (horrific accident)
The only problem with the 350z is they sound like a trumpet
I kinda like it honestly. Could be worse. At least it doesn't sound like a fart can.
W211 E500
bruh where the hell are you finding these prices - a lot of these cars, in manual, are over 10k
That’s cheap in 2024
@@Mustlehard not with the same income as last year it isn't
@@twinblade02 well there you go. It’s time to get your money up
Hello
How convenient not to put the dates of this deals!
Bro plzz tell me different between subaru brz and Toyota 86 🙃🙃
No difference 😁
The name.
the only difference i would say is the brz is more round if that make sense. and the 86 a bit more aggressive. but the difference is barely noticeable
I was interested, and then the two commentators came on. my nine-year-old even asked what the heck I was watching work
How many times can we make the same video before anybody notices
Noticed, added some new vid ideas in my main comment. We'll see what happens.
Early gang

Solstrice is great but impractical. Z3 perfomance is also great but the looking department? I rather not say😂😂
Spot on on the Z3. See my main comment. Lol.
I used to own a 94 Camaro V6 😅😅
v6? thats the worst version ever, the v8 Ls is a better option
He did say "used to". Sounds like some lessons were learned. Could have been a hand-me-down, or first car situation.
no miatas?
If you need & you r needy get a Miata/Mx5.
I have two. The other is sitting though.
My daily is an NB with a 6spd, LSD, and 312hp at the crank, 266 at the wheels. (242ftlbs wheel, 279ftlbs crank) 17psi, tuned on 93 octane on a DynaPro. The clutch is only good to 310ftlbs, so I've hit my power goal for this car. It has H-beam rods and 9.0:1 Carillo forged pistons. The engine is good for around 400hp, but the rest of the drivetrain won't survive that. It also has 81lb Supertech valve springs and a (must have) Fluidampr harmonic balancer.
For the other car, 90' NA miata, I'm debating a supercharger, LS swap, or a 1.8 swap with an overbore (1.9l), ITBs, forged aluminum internals, and a titanium valvetrain.
Haven't made up my mind yet. The ITB route would probably be the cheapest to be honest, which I'm more in favor of. I'm interested to see if I can get 11.1:1 pistons and 200+hp out of that setup.
GTI 🔥🔥
More Trav less Brad. Trav get closer to mic and Brad back away way away. More director stance
audi coupe?
There’s only nine in the photo…

In what world is that Camaro better then the Vet, get a C4 1995 pushing more hp, better frame, half the price,
The SN95 Mustang GT was good, but you left out an even better Mustang alternative that can be snatched at a great price if you can find them: A Generation 5 2011-2014 Mustang V6. Yep, I said V6. That V6 Mustang has 305 hp stock, which is quite a bit more than the V8 SN95 you all recommended, and it even gets better gas mileage. I know because I owned a 6 Speed 2014 V6 and it was a blast. Tons of aftermarket support is out there for the Gen 5 Mustangs. I did some simple mods on my V6 and my hp was pushed to about 350 hp which was pretty good for a daily driver. You dropped the ball on that one. The Gen 5 V6 is much better than the SN95 V8.
you butchered "the smooth operator's" name
E36…
I see the cowboy hat and beard.. are you doing testosterone treatments?
Man where’s the gtp at.
superchargers are better, turbos aren't
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Awesome but none of these are cheap in europe
Nissan 350z
@@samihassan6802 a decent 350z still costs around 20k euros here
The money you save on a cheap car you will well over make up for on repairs
We might need to define "cheap" first. If you mean "low quality", as with the Mirage, or Sonic, then yes, I agree. However, if you just mean "low cost", that will heavily depend on the platform. Manuals routinely outlive automatics. Manual doorlocks and windows routinely outlive their electric counterparts. Likewise, in the engine bay, an aluminum part will always outlive a plastic one. Mechanical parts routinely outlive electric ones.
So while a car that costs under $5k might be considerd cheap, depending on the platform, that will either be a win, or a moneypit. Also, it really depends on expense targeting and financial strategy. In stock unmodified form, my car (2000 NB miata) can easily run in excess of 200k mi with minimal maintenance. Likewise, an EG civic with a D15 (base engine) can run into the 270k mi range driven almost like a race car daily with very minimal maintenence as well.
I've been able to invest in mostly upgrades on my car for around $200/mo for around a year. The resulting product is a PWR of .13hp/lb.
